If you’ve been following my posts for a while, you probably already know that I’ve been buried in the studio working on my two Corvette paintings for the upcoming LUSTER Exhibition at the National Corvette Museum. This morning, the unwrapping revealed my two paintings for the first time, all unwrapped and ready for final details.
Mark your calendar. The date is confirmed for the official LUSTER Art Exhibition launch at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky, to unveil my two supersized artworks celebrating Corvette’s 70th anniversary as America’s Sports Car.
The LUSTER Exhibition, hosted by the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts has been extended at the Blue Buffalo Art Gallery through February 14, 2024 with an impressive showing of automotive and motorcycle artworks.
Most dictionaries define momentum as motion or a series of events and speak of mass and velocity. My new art in the studio is all of that! I could not be more excited as my latest artwork, MOMENTUM, moves forward. Momentum is not about light speed. After all, the difference between the 1953 Corvette and the 2023 Corvette is seven decades of choreographed steps to get from there to here. Nothing great happens overnight.
IMPORTANT UPDATE — The San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts is under renovation, so it has leased the recently renovated BLUE BUFFALO ART GALLERY in downtown San Angelo for its forthcoming display of the LUSTER Exhibition.
I could not be more excited! These past weeks, I have been drawing, printing out photos from my recent Corvette shoots, and generally obsessing over my Corvette art project.
The LUSTER automotive and motorcycle realism art exhibition will be hosted at Blue Buffalo Gallery in downtown San Angelo for its forthcoming display of the LUSTER Exhibition.
Rev up your engines and join the Dennos Museum for a thrilling evening of car-themed trivia as part of the mesmerizing Luster Exhibition, showcasing awe-inspiring hyperrealistic paintings of cars and motorcycles.
LUSTER: Realism and Hyperrealism in Contemporary Automobile and Motorcycle Paintings is a traveling exhibition comprising over 55 paintings by nearly 15 leading photorealists and hyperrealists specializing in automobiles and motorcycles as their primary subject of choice.
